Work to do includes - [x] Convert to/from old style observation dictionaries - [x] Put responsibility for Noise Models including outliers in individual Observation instances - [x] Make predictions even...

It's about time for a v1.2 release, along with freezing a version of the documentation at v1.2. It would be nice but not necessary to add the Linear SFH from...

Allow for multiple spectra to be fit, potentially sharing some parameters.

enhancement
v2.0

right now the flexible SFHs are piecewise constant; it might be good to also have something that is piecewise linear, with fixed or flexible timepoints and then free SFRs at...

help wanted

To aid in clarity, the various object classes might store lists of the available fittable parameters. I.e. `CSPSpecBasis` might have an attribute `available_parameters` that is a list that includes all...

There are a number of potential inefficiencies in `SpecModel.predict()`, including multiple calls to functions that might not be cheap, reading emline_info from disk every call, and linear algebra operations on...

enhancement

Like for the `emcee` fitting, we should have an option for periodically saving the dynesty results to disk during a run (the current setup already uses the dynesty sampling iterator)...

enhancement
v2.0

right now the cosmology is hardcoded to `astropy.cosmology.WMAP9`; users may wish to change this

enhancement

Making the `obs` dictionary into a full fledged `Observations` object might make it clearer to handle and interact with in many cases.

enhancement
v2.0

It would be nice to break up some of the smoothing logic to have rest-frame (i.e. physical velocity dispersion) and observed frame (i.e. instrumental) components. It would also be good...
